The 25-year-old former swimmer reshared a video on her X account [formerly Twitter], which showed a physician from the hospital, Dr. Frances Grimstad, explaining the details of a gender affirming hysterectomy. According to Dr. Grimstad, there is not much of a difference between a normal hysterectomy and a gender affirming hysterectomy.

Gaines responded to the same by writing on her X timeline,

"This woman is giddy about the thought/practice of removing a healthy uterus from a young girl. This is far beyond dystopian or Orwellian. It's demonic."

"They swore up and down they weren't performing this butchery, now they're telling you they always have and that they'll continue doing so. They received ~$230 million in taxpayer dollars in 2024 alone..."

A few days ago, Pelosi backed gender affirming care for transgender kids as she said,

"Well, that's something I'm working for at the national level, and we are hoping that we can have gender-affirming care for our trans kids. And it's a sad thing for us. I don't know what effect we can have nationally with what we have going on in the White House and in the Congress. It's really very sad."
